Frequently asked questions
What rate does Takenos pay on the balance?+
The headline rate is 3% and it is variable, so it can move rather than staying fixed for a set term. The account is easy access, which suits anyone who needs to move money out without a notice period.
Is there a monthly fee?+
The monthly fee is $0, and the account runs on a no-monthly-fee model. The only cost that comes with the account is therefore the rate you earn, not a charge for holding it.
How much do I need to put in to start?+
The minimum deposit is $1. That is a low entry point, so the account is open to people building a balance in smaller steps rather than depositing a lump sum.
Can I trade investment packages as well?+
Yes. Packages are bought and sold through the app without commissions, and the return on your balance also builds up there. Dealing runs through the week and weekend alike, so the balance and the packages sit in one place.
How do I reach Takenos if something goes wrong?+
Support runs on email and help centre, which means email and a help centre. There is no phone line listed, so anyone who wants to talk a problem through should check whether that matters to them first.
How does the rate compare with other easy-access accounts?+
Takenos pays 3% against a site median of 3% for this account type. Wise pays 3.29% and bunq mass interest is 3.01%, so the alternatives are close or slightly better on rate.
Who is Takenos suited to?+
It suits savers who want easy access, a no-monthly-fee setup and commission-free package trading in the same app. It fits people building a cash buffer and willing to accept a variable rate rather than a fixed one.
